## Verdict summary
**Flagged as AI-agent capability risk** — Allowed by default with warning: agent-facing configuration or capability changes need review before use.

- **Verdict:** Suspicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Warn
- **Firewall policy:** Warn-only AI-agent capability risk
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** AI-agent capability abuse
- **Selected version:** 0.11.172
- **Selected version is latest:** No
- **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai)

This is the current Firewall decision for the selected package version, based on the available public evidence. Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions.

AI assessment: suspicious; recommendation: downgrade to warn. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

No malicious install-time chain or confirmed secret theft was found. The package still has high-impact, persistent AI-agent configuration capabilities that merit a warning.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 90.0%
- **Started:** 2026-08-28T14:53:37.654Z
- **Finished:** 2026-08-28T14:54:55.213Z
- **Download time:** 511 ms
- **Static scan time:** 1906 ms
- **AI review time:** 75141 ms
- **Total time:** 77559 ms

The recorded confidence comes from the underlying analysis. Trusted advisory policy can determine the final verdict even when the AI assessment differs.

## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** An explicit CLI run can reconfigure several AI tools to use an Anyray gateway and install related hooks or refresh services. This is a meaningful agent-control capability, but it is not an install-time attack.

- **Trigger:** User runs anyray-connect, including through npx, and confirms or supplies setup options.

- **Impact:** Configured tools may send their routed requests and gateway key to the chosen gateway, and persistent user-level configuration or timers may remain until reverted.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, README.md, dist/index.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-08-28T14:54:55.213Z

### AI review details

- **Review stage:** source\_first\_review

- **Mechanism:** User-invoked AI-tool configuration, gateway routing, hooks, and refresh scheduling.

- **Rationale:** No malicious install-time chain or confirmed secret theft was found. The package still has high-impact, persistent AI-agent configuration capabilities that merit a warning.

- **Files touched:** ~/.anyray/bin, ~/.codex/config.toml, ~/.codex/hooks.json, ~/.claude/settings.json

- **Network endpoints:** http://localhost:8787

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 90.0%

- **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for warning:** The executable CLI makes durable copies and registers hooks, MCP entries, and login services after an explicit npx command., The bundled entrypoint resolves and writes Codex configuration and hook paths., The CLI can enable a per-user systemd timer for recurring refresh activity., It routes configured AI-tool traffic and personal gateway credentials to the selected gateway.

- **Evidence against:** package.json has no preinstall, install, or postinstall hook., The default gateway is localhost; no fixed credential-exfiltration receiver was confirmed., Risky changes require running the package CLI rather than occurring during registry installation., No reviewer-directed text, self-dependency, obfuscated payload loader, or destructive behavior was found.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to anyray-connect@0.11.172.

- Review the evidence and your use of anyray-connect@0.11.172 before allowing it. Restrict the permissions described in this report.
- Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe.
